The diva and I cross each other

Chapter 172 The drunkard doesn’t care about drinking

"Sister Wen, what does he mean?" Chen Sichu asked, stunned.

"'Speak Out' is a program co-operated between Starlight Entertainment and Mango Channel. Mango Channel's control over variety shows is unquestionable, but as one of the shareholders of the program group, Starlight Entertainment definitely also has a certain say.

Starlight Entertainment and our company are in a direct competitive relationship. Our company mainly focuses on TV dramas and supplements with movies. Starlight Entertainment develops TV dramas and music together. TV dramas are not as good as ours, but music is much better than us.

The two families have been fighting openly and secretly in the field of TV dramas over the years. Maybe the artists from Starlight Entertainment who participated in my program this time will do something! "

"Ah? Then Sister Shan also wants Sister Wen to participate?" Chen Sichu asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"That's because "Speak Out" is indeed a variety show with very good ratings. Besides, Mango Channel still has strong control over variety shows. They won't do anything when the show starts filming.

The reminder from the filming guy just now is most likely to tell us to be careful tonight. People from Starlight Entertainment may come over to visit us or something. "

Chen Sichu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. If it was just a casual exchange of words, Chen Sichu thought it would be no big deal.

In the past, when Lin Shuwen didn't win the Golden Melody Award for Best Newcomer, her status in the company was not high. She even made two TV series and was criticized a lot. Chen Sichu has become immune to those unpleasant words.

"Dong dong dong!" Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

"Really here? I can't wait so hard!" Chen Sichu couldn't help but complain.

Lin Shuwen smiled and said: "I specifically mentioned it to the photographer. That person who must be Xingguang said something. He or his colleagues heard it. I think it's strange that they didn't come over! Chuchu, go and open the door!"

Chen Sichu nodded, walked over and took a look at the cat's eye, confirming that it was indeed an artist from Starlight Entertainment, and then opened the door.

As soon as Chen Sichu closed the door, the visitor shouted into the room: "Wenwen! I'm kind enough to come over to see you, why don't you say hello to me?"

Hearing the sound coming from the door, Lin Shuwen was stunned for a moment, and then walked over in three steps.

"Weiwei! Why is it you?" Lin Shuwen asked with a surprised look on her face.

"What? I can't come?"

"Of course I can come, I just"

"I just didn't expect that I would also participate in this episode of "Speak Out," right?"

Lin Shuwen nodded. Entertainment companies are very realistic. Xin Xiaowei filmed Director Liu's TV series and failed to become popular. Logically speaking, she should have been abandoned by Starlight Entertainment. Why would Starlight Entertainment arrange such important resources for her? ?

Xin Xiaowei saw Lin Shuwen's doubts and smiled and said: "My agent fought for this opportunity for me. We have been working together for many years. He said this was the last thing he could do for me.

If I still fail to become popular after participating in this show, the company will not renew my contract after my contract expires in July this year. "

"You can still laugh at this!" Lin Shuwen said helplessly.

"What's not to laugh about? I won't starve to death after leaving the entertainment industry. To tell you the truth, I'm already looking at shops. I've saved some money in the past few years and I'm going to open an affordable luxury jewelry store. The store is like Luxury Luo Shiqi. When Wenwen comes, you should come and buy a few more strings to support me."

Lin Shuwen sighed, why does this person always look so heartless?

"Sister Wen, do you know each other?" Chen Sichu asked subconsciously when he saw the familiarity between the two.

"Well, Weiwei and I have been on the same crew."

"Ah?" Chen Sichu seemed to have heard some fantasy, and asked with a surprised look on his face: "Can we Huayue and Xingguang co-produce a TV series?"

"It was my debut film before I joined the company. It was the TV series directed by Liu. That TV series was invested by Starlight."

"Oh, that's it. Sister Wen, you guys talk, and I'll go out and buy you some dinner."

Lin Shuwen nodded.

After Chen Sichu left, Lin Shuwen pulled Xin Xiaowei and sat down on the bed.

"Weiwei, are you really ready to quit?"

"You can see my current situation. It's not that I want to quit the industry, it's that I have nothing to film. After I graduated, a TV series that the company invested in me didn't make any waves. The New Year's movie was worth it. Even if it's worth it, I still don't have much discussion.

The company has made it clear that it will not provide me with resources. If my agent had not argued with my superiors, I would not have been able to get a spot in this variety show. It’s not that I want to quit, it’s that I can’t stay in this industry anymore. "

Lin Shuwen was silent after hearing this. After more than ten seconds, Lin Shuwen said in a serious tone: "Weiwei, after your contract with Xingguang ends, how about I introduce you to an entertainment company?"

"You want to introduce me? It can't be Huayue, right? That's not necessary. I can't switch jobs to Huayue. If nothing else, I can't forget the kindness my agent has shown me."

"It's not Huayue, it's the entertainment company run by my friend."

"Your friend's entertainment company? What's its name?"

"I haven't registered yet!" Lin Shuwen said awkwardly.

"You're here to win over me before you even register? Wenwen, you're too outrageous!"

"I'm serious, Weiwei, are you also playing "Happy Match", right? I even helped you."

Xin Xiaowei nodded: "I am indeed playing this game. Does it have anything to do with the entertainment company you mentioned?"

"Yes, the entertainment company I'm talking about is opened by Zhuoguang, who makes "Happy Xiaoxiaole". I can't tell you specifically why they want to open an entertainment company, but this entertainment company will definitely open. You sign in, I'll find a way to help you make a comeback." Xin Xiaowei had a strange expression when she heard this: "Wenwen, you are too loud! Those who don't know better think you are Zhuo Guang's boss!"

"Well, just trust me anyway! I won't cheat you."

"Okay! Then I'll wait for you to catch me in July."

Lin Shuwen smiled and nodded.

"By the way, Wenwen, I'm here to give you a tip."

"What? Are the other artists of Starlight Entertainment planning to target me?"

"It's not that exaggerated. It's just that some people in the company feel that you have lost the face of Starlight Entertainment by being invited by Mango Channel over Starlight Entertainment. They want to steal a few scenes from you during the recording of the program to reduce your exposure. I also plan to squeeze you together and make you sing songs that you are not good at."

"Interesting! I thought they would come tonight! I didn't expect they were signing up for a group on the show."

"Wenwen, don't worry, I will be on your side."

"No, Weiwei, just take care of yourself. I'm not someone to be bullied."

The next day, the filming PD knocked on Lin Shuwen's door at 8 o'clock sharp.

Lin Shuwen, who had already put on makeup, asked Chen Sichu to open the door and went to the show with the PD.

The topics I talked to the PD on the way were all about this show, and Lin Shuwen listened silently.

When she arrived at the studio, Lin Shuwen met Lu Wenlong, the director of the program team. Next to Lu Wenlong was a short man with sparse hair and glasses.

"Old Hong, I called for you, you can talk about the rest yourself!"

"Director Lu, what do you mean by this?" Lin Shuwen asked, stunned for a moment.

"Haha! Wenwen, don't be nervous. In fact, this time our program team directly bypassed Starlight Entertainment to invite you. A large part of the reason is that Director Hong next to me wants to talk to you."

"Director Hong? Is this also a variety show director from your station?"

"Yes, Director Hong is the director and chief planner of a new variety show on our station."

Lin Shuwen was silent after hearing this.

"Ms. Lin, can I spare you a few minutes?" Director Hong asked.

"Can I bring an assistant?"

"Ms. Lin, this program is very important. Our station is still in the confidentiality stage. Please understand."

"Wenwen, don't worry, Lao Hong is a serious person. Besides, there are so many people watching here! If this show wasn't special, we definitely wouldn't do this." Lu Wenlong said.

Hearing this, Lin Shuwen hesitated and nodded in agreement.

"This way please."

Lin Shuwen followed Director Hong to his office. On the way, Lin Shuwen sent messages to both Sister Shan and Luo Ming.

After receiving the news, Sister Shan asked Lin Shuwen to calm down and she would contact Lu Wenlong to ask about the situation. Luo Ming directly replied: "Wenwen, please give me a call and I will record the call."

When entering Director Hong's office, Lin Shuwen dialed Luo Ming's phone. Luo Ming turned on the speakerphone and phone recording, and placed a voice recorder next to her.

Director Hong noticed Lin Shuwen's caution and smiled and said, "Miss Lin, don't be nervous. Let me introduce myself first. My name is Hong Bo. I have been working at Mango TV for almost twenty years."

"What does Director Hong want from me?"

"Lao Lu just said that I am the director and producer of a new variety show on Mango TV. Naturally, I am looking for you to invite you to my show."

"Why don't you talk to my agent directly about this matter, instead of meeting me first in a roundabout way?"

"Because I want to confirm first, Miss Lin, whether you are a real musician."

"What does Director Hong mean by this?"

"Ms. Lin, you should know that there is a type of singer in the Chinese music scene, who are completely packaged.

Their singing in the studio and singing live are completely different dimensions. "

Hearing this, Lin Shuwen understood that Hong Bo wanted to find a singer with real singing skills.

As he said, there are indeed singers in the Chinese music scene who rely entirely on packaging and sound editing. They rely on a strong music production team and catchy songs to become a hit.

However, this type of singer is a bit unsatisfactory when singing live. Even in many concerts and commercial performances, they lip-sync, or they just play accompaniment and act like a jerk.

If these types of singers are allowed to participate in highly competitive music programs, some problems that can be concealed through voice modification will be exposed.
